The following formatting is recommended for eCoursework: • Arial font size 12 (where the language / script supports it) • Double-line spacing • Numbered pages • Portrait orientation (rather than landscape) – except where it is necessary to accommodate a specific item such as a graph or illustration The purpose of this guidance is to make the script as easy as possible to read and mark for the examiner. A candidate will not be penalized for failing to comply with above formatting. Notice that everything is "recommended" - candidates aren't penalized for using a different format as long as it is clear.
Here are some sample IAs from a teacher workshop to give you a feel for the assignment. The marks are a bit higher on the samples than on the real thing.
